Haiti fashion week from October 30th to November 2nd at the Karibe Hotel Convention Center

Following the success of the last Haiti fashion week, this year's iteration, slated to kick off in just over a month, promises to be the biggest, grandest, most fashionable one yet. Spanning four days from the end of October to early November, Haiti fashion week 2014 is slated to attract worldwide attention, offering bits of colorful, dramatic Haitian culture in every stitch.

The show is the country's answer to the New York fashion week, a major event in the fashion world internally, that takes place every September and draws people and the eyes of the world on New York City like flies to honey. Not by chance, but rather a cunning bit of planning, the run for this, Haiti's third such week of high fashion, will be from October 30th to the 2nd of November. Following so closely behind the bigger event, Haiti hopes to ride some of that momentum.

The event, being held in the equally fashionable town of Petion-Ville, will take place at the Karibe Hotel Convention Center. It allows Haitian designers, at home and away, to showcase their talents while boosting the industry and thus helping to stimulate the economy by attracting retailers and distributors locally and internationally.

While there isn't yet a confirmed list of artists and designers for the show, it is going full steam ahead following the successful press conference to announce the event on September 8. The Haitian Fashion Week feed on twitter and Facebook will remain active, feeding the public necessary updates.
